....

I don't see the point either.

The only improvements to the Mk5 which the Mk6 has aren't included on this eBay option.

I'm reminded of that pug advert when the guy in India bashes his old banger into the shape of a 207. (I think).

Imagine trying to resell LOL or insure....  :rolleye: bonkers

Was only a matter of time before this happened. It's not difficult to do, the price they're charging is crazy, and the rear "vendors" probably involve lots of bondo-ing.

If you're crazy enough to do this you can use all OEM parts. Fair enough, it would cost you almost as much as a new car when all's said and done with paint and refitting and modifications but hey - if you're gonna do it, do it right damnit.
